Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 204

Hedy's face went white at once! She didn't expect that Eileen could hear her from such a distance.

The surroundings immediately fell silent.

Eileen glanced at Hedy, then turned her head and walked on. The cafeteria was nearby the playing field.

Just as they reached the cafeteria, a loud "bang" was heard.

Followed by a series of shrieks.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Someone yelled from the teaching building, "Someone jumped off the building!"

Jumped off the building?

Eileen squinted her eyes, glanced at the cafeteria, then at the teaching building.

Finally, curiosity beat hunger and she started running towards the teaching building.

By the time everyone reached the base of the building, there was a body lying on the ground.

The corpse's eyes were wide open, blood all over, head shattered.

It was the girl with the ponytail!

"Oh!" Hedy couldn't bear to look, turned around, and almost threw up, covering her mouth.

Phyllis and Jaqueline were no better, they turned their backs quickly, closing their eyes!

Jarvis and Simon tried to pull Eileen behind them.

But before they could reach out, Eileen had already walked past them, striding forward.

Jarvis called out anxiously, "Ms. Lopez!"

Eileen didn't pay attention to them, crouching down to examine the body.

"Fatal wound to the head, severe skull fracture, neck twisted. This brain matter and blood are a bit sloppy, why did the color fade?" Eileen looked at the pigment on her hand.

She gently pressed her palm against the corpse's clothes and wiped her hands with them. The girl with the ponytail lay in a pool of blood, her protruding eyes staring straight at Eileen's face.

Eileen met her gaze and said awkwardly, "Your clothes need to be washed anyway, I didn't bring any tissues…"

After coughing, she changed the subject.

She started instructing the corpse, "A body that fell to death should be softer, but your hand and leg bones are too hard. Be more natural, collapse a bit, yes, press down a bit, now it looks like it."

After instructing the corpse, Eileen stood up and surveyed the surroundings.

After a while, she said to the drone camera in the sky, "The people who do wardrobe, makeup, and props are not professional. This blood spatter range, at least from a ten-story fall, would the blood splash so far, but this teaching building only has six floors, your blood splashed too far, it's not realistic, you have to improve next time."

The director watching the feed was speechless.

Everyone else was also speechless.

-[Wow, Eileen really knows her stuff. She can explain everything so well.]

-[How does Eileen know these things?]

-[Don't be surprised, Eileen is good at fighting. People who are good at fighting usually have a deep understanding of the human skeleton and structure. This is mainly to be able to determine which parts are fatal and which are not during a fight. After all, if the force is too great, the injury is too heavy, it may cause death, then you have to face legal punishment.]

-[Wait, that's why? I learned something new. Everyone, type "professional" on the screen.]

Eileen didn't care about the messy information in those comments.

She wasn't afraid of corpses because she studied medicine.

Even if this body was real, it was just part of medical practice, medical students or clinicians, usually aren't afraid of corpses.

After inspecting the scene, Eileen walked into the teaching building and headed upstairs.

Ten minutes later, Eileen came back, she walked up to her friends and said, "I didn't see any other suspicious people, and can't tell from the environment which floor she fell from, but what is known is that she did die from the fall, there are no other fatal injuries on her body."

At this time, the school authorities came to disperse the crowd, not allowing students to linger.

Eileen said, "Let's go."

Jarvis asked seriously, "Where do we go now?"

Eileen said matter-of-factly, "Didn't I tell you? To eat."

Jarvis went silent.

Jaqueline was shocked, "In this situation, you still want to go eat?"

Eileen said, "We're not allowed to stay here anymore, if you want to stay, I won't stop you."

Jaqueline was a bit unhappy, "But we just saw a body. I can’t eat now!"

Fifteen minutes later, everyone blankly watched Eileen chow down!

Since she didn't have a cafeteria card and couldn't get more food, after finishing her meal, Eileen was ready to eat other people's meals.

Eileen set her sights on Jacqueline, who hadn't touched her food.

So she said, "Jaqueline, look at your veggies, don't they look like the brain matter earlier, all red and white."

Jaqueline was totally speechless.

Jaqueline put down her utensils, completely lost her appetite.

Was this a coincidence? Or did the producers want to make her feel awkward?

Once everyone finished their introductions, Eileen drummed her fingers on the table and said, "From what we've gathered, everyone here, except for the school doctor, is somehow linked to the basketball team. Even the girl who jumped off the building was the basketball captain's girlfriend..."

She shook her head, "There's too little information. I'm still clueless about what the showrunners want us to do. Let's all split up, gather more info, and regroup here at five to brainstorm."

No one objected.

Everyone then scattered to do their own thing.

Eileen had thought that after splitting up, they would run into other characters and get more information through conversations.

But to her surprise, after wandering around the school for hours, no one paid her any attention!

Since Eileen figured the critical information must be related to the basketball team, she decided to check out their court.

Finding the doors locked, Eileen was about to climb in through a window.

Just then, a security guard spotted her and shouted, "What are you doing? What class are you in?"

Seeing this, Eileen took off running!

But the faster she ran, the more determined the guard was to catch her.

For the next twenty minutes, Eileen was chased around half the school building by a guard wielding a baton.

Finally, Eileen ducked into the girls' restroom to shake him off.

After waiting in the restroom for about ten minutes, Eileen cautiously peeked out.

Seeing no sign of the guard, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to leave.

But just then, a freckled girl showed up and said, "Eileen, what are you doing here? I need to go back to the dorm to grab something. Come with me."

Excited, Eileen thought, 'Finally, some plot progression!'

Eagerly, she replied, "Sure, sure, sure."

Twenty minutes later, Eileen found herself in a dilapidated dorm room, dimly lit by the faint light streaming in through the window. Hesitant, she asked, "Is this our dorm? It looks abandoned, doesn't it?"

Before she could finish, there was a loud bang, and the door was suddenly shut.

Soon after, a chilling sobbing sound filled the room.

The eerie sound sent shivers down Eileen's spine, causing goosebumps all over her body.

She turned to call for the freckled girl, but when she looked back...

She saw the freckled girl's face suddenly covered in bloodshot veins, her eyes red as if about to bleed, lips cracked open wide, smiling a sinister smile, and slowly approaching her.
